Church of Saint Michael Archangel 

Veroli. Church of Saint Michael Archangel 

This small church dedicated to the Archangel Michael in Veroli is an unusual set of styles.

The current church was completely rebuilt in the nineteenth century with references to various eras.

The façade is divided into two parts: a staircase leads to a portico with four classic columns above which a marble band divides the two sections.

The upper part is in the late nineteenth century style composed of three large windows of which the central one is decorated with a painted glass window.

Next to the church there is a small bell tower with a square plan with the lower level in bricks and the upper part that recalls the large neoclassical bell towers, albeit in 'miniature'.

The interior is decorated with stuccos and on the altar there is an oval canvas depicting Saint Michael Archangel, a copy of the most famous painting by Guido Reni.
